Different club, different manager (although Gary Megson worked his magic at City too in the past), same story. This article says it all.
Is there a pithy phrase for the way waste spirals down the toilet bowl - it might be more appropriate than ‘managerial merry-go-round’.

Norwich City have won once in the league and scored twice since my son Noah was born. The only controlled physical co-ordination he is currently showing is the (very entertaining) ability to spit out a dummy. But it looks as though he would do a better job in the team than some of the players.

Gales; rain; cold, dark nights and live football on the radio - it must be August!

Football is an entertainment business where spin (and [...]

Magnificent, magnificent end to the Wales v Italy game this afternoon. Apologies to all my Welsh friends but for the last 10 minutes of the game I was on the edge of my seat chanting “Italia!” The build up to their try was fantastic and the conclusion of the match will make it on to [...]

So the Canaries cup run is set to come cashing to an end at Stamford Bridge then…
(That’s always asuming we can overcome the mighty Blackpool first )
I would have been tempted to take the Young Master to watch the game if I thought it would be value for money but with City playing like a team of peoplewhocantplayverywell and [...]

It’s probably not what Trinny and Suzanna would have chosen if they had been arranging the FA Cup fixtures but Canary yellow against Blackpool tangerine gives us at least a fighting chance of getting into the fifth round for the first time since Dion Dublin was in nappies (OK bit of an exageration but as the [...]
